Juliette Has A Gun Metal Chypre is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Romano Ricci. Metal Chypre opens with Bergamot and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Suede, Amber, Patchouli, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Musk, Tonka Bean, and Ambroxan. Juliette Has A Gun's Metal Chypre carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This is a divisive, opinionated beast, not for the faint of heart. Expect a journey from cold, sharp metal to a surprisingly soft, comforting dry-down. It's an artwork some will adore, others will find unwearable, but rarely unremarkable.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Metal Chypre opens with a sharp, almost industrial metallic bite, thanks to a bold pink pepper and bergamot pairing. This quickly evolves into a surprisingly elegant powdery iris, softened by a plush suede accord. As it settles, earthy patchouli and rich amber weave through, grounded by a clean musk and the modern warmth of ambroxan and tonka bean, creating a fascinating contrast of hard and soft textures.
